Valentine's Day is a chance to show some big love, but findng something special and meaningful can be tricky. This is where art, expecially wildlife art, comes in. A painting not only lasts forever, reminding you of your connection every time you look at it, but a print featuring your partner's beloved bird or animal is also the most personal, thoughtful gift you can give.



And a painting that reminds you of special memories you've shared, is extra special. There's nothing quite like a painting featuring animals that symbolize your relationship. Whether you see yourselves as love birds or have a shared favorite wild animal, this wildlife art collection is brimming with romantic inspiration. 

Art for love birds

I often get commissioned by couples to paint something that reflects their personal love story and nature's love birds are a favourite theme. In fact the time I was asked to paint oystercatchers for a proposal is possibly the most romantic story ever.  If you and your loved one also identify as 'love birds' then you're bound to find something that reflects your feelings in the following collection. In fact, the only question is: which of these love birds are you?

The perfect pair

Are you the perfect pair? These avocets complement one another perfectly, the curve of their elegant necks and beaks echo one another with graceful symmetry - if this sounds like you and your partner then choose it to give on Valentine's Day and it will remind you of your feelings for one another every time you look at it.

If your Valentine has a sense of humour, then this art print is sure to bring a smile. Similarly, the adorable mallard ducks below would make a playful gift for someone who enjoys watching these amusing water birds on the water.

A Valentine's day out with wildlife

If you found these art choices inspiring, why not visit my wildlife art gallery in Thixendale and choose a painting together? My art collection is extensive, so there's bound to be something just right for you both. And, since wildlife and nature has a way of bringing people together, a visit to the gallery is the perfect place for a romantic day out. Alongside the art and gifts there are wildlife films and live animal cameras to watch. Right now the owls and kestrels are pairing up so you should see these wild love stories too.
